UNDERCOVER 2009 SPRING / SUMMER “POPTONES” COLLECTION
As another portion of Undercover’s men’s collection for the 2009 spring/summer season, the Poptones collection takes a slightly different route then its more casual Neoboy collection. Slightly baggy suits are the ongoing theme for the most part as we anticipate some further looks in the near future.

MASTERMIND JAPAN 2009 SPRING / SUMMER ACCESSOIRIES
While mastermind JAPAN’s season to season releases offer little in the form of diversity, nobody can really question their dedication to their ongoing themes of skull imagery and colortones as the brand features itself as a favorite among a small niche of those able to afford the expensively priced collections. In a look at their 2009 spring/summer “ace-high” accessories, the brand’s offerings revolve around its trademark logo on items such as gloves, eyewear and belts. A large drop has arrived at Cliffedge.

Here is another brief look at what is in store for the warmer months of 2009 as they continue to evolve and grow as Hiroki Nakamura makes some big moves.

Yohji Yamamoto’s more youthful collection Coming Soon is seen here as the designer
takes a decidedly more simple approach with an emphasis on design and quality. While
Coming Soon was only formally launched at the beginning of this year, however no doubt
under the guidance of the well-versed Yamamoto, we can expect another great brand to
join the ranks of the fashion world.

ATO COW HIDE BOOT & SANDAL
The Ato Cow Hide Boot is definitely not easy to get hold of. Ever since Oki-Ni started offering
them, it made life a little easier for fans outside of Japan. Now they are offering on pre-order for
Spring 2009 the latest colorway of the Cow Hide Boots, this time coming in a black /
green colorway. Matching the boots, they also offer a Ato Sandal, which is just as different and
innovative as the sneaker has been when it came out. Once again, definitely not something for
everybody.
